GLOBAL BACHELOR DAUPHINE LONDON

Commencing in the 2014 academic year, the Global Bachelor Dauphine London offers

students who have completed their senior high school year (in Economics-Sociology or in

Science) an opportunity to further their studieswith a university two-year course in

Economics-Management at the University of Paris Dauphine campus located in the heart of

London.

AN INOVATICE STRUCTURE

The Global Bachelor Dauphine London is similar to studying for your first year of university in

Paris. The courses, however, will be largely taught in English by Englishspeaking

Frenchspeaking professors from both French and English schools. This programme is

adapted to the British learning environment and proposes numerous extracurricular activities

led by local professors. It also benefits from the support of the Dauphine alumni network in

London.

The homogeneity of the programme and its development are ensured by:

- a syllabus for each course, including the Head of the course in Paris as well as the

Professor at the London campus. These two Heads are in regular contact and meet annually;

- a Development Council, which aims to discuss the orientation of the programme from an

academic point of view as well as its professional utility. Part of this Council’s mission is to

inform the Heads of the programme of any social or professional developments which may

be integrated into the programme in order to facilitate the professional development and

opportunities of the students by ensuring the relevance of the skills taught. The Council is

composed of professors, adjunct faculty members, student representatives and the Head of

the programme.

The entering Class of 2014 is composed of approximately 30 recruited students with priority

given to the graduates from French high schools abroad. The programme is housed in the

centre of London in the Institut Français (IFRU) building near the Charles de Gaulle high

school.

Dauphine is strongly committed to offering students who have been influenced by an

international experience the possibility to study for their first two years of university in an

Anglophone and multicultural environment.

5

CONTINUING YOUR STUDIES

At the end of your two years in London, you can continue your third year of studies in Paris

or at one of Dauphine’s many international partners. The University of Paris Dauphine has a

number of partnerships and exchange programmes with over fifty different schools

internationally, which opens the door to students wishing to complete a double-degree

programme.

EDUCATION COACHING/ GUIDANCE

Sylvie Rolland, Associate Professor and Head of the Programme, is responsible for the

academic coordination and operation of the Global Bachelor Dauphine London. In this role,

she will hold office hours for students each week.

Contact: Sylvie ROLLAND, Programme Manager, [email protected]

In order to help students settle in London, Dauphine offers various administrative services.

These services are particularly useful when looking for accommodation.

Contact: Julie GINEZ, Programme assistant, [email protected]

IMPORTANT

Students are required to bring a laptop computer in class. This will help them in accessing

the online education platforms as well as a univeristy calculator for statistics courses (all

other calculators are prohibited).

ACCOUNTING

Course objectives:

Semester 1 - This course aims to give students an accounting culture sufficient to

understand the major developments of capitalism. Accounting is, in this course, seen as an

instrument of capital finance. For this reason, the course is based on a historical and

comparative dimension.

This approach is not based on techniques geared at recording financial flows within a

company. The idea, rather, is to understand that an accounting result is a social construction,

the fruit of tensions between the divergent interest groups (shareholders, employees,

government). The international dimension is an integral part of this course as the Anglo-

Saxon and continental accounting systems are systematically put into perspective and

discussed.

Semestre 2

Regardless of the fact that the second part of this course accentuates the technical

dimension of accounting, it aims to give students an accounting culture sufficient to

understand the major developments of capitalism. Accounting is, in this course, seen as an

instrument of capital finance. For this reason, the course is based on a historical and

comparative dimension. This approach is not based on techniques geared at recording

financial flows within a company. The idea, rather, is to understand that an accounting result

is a social construction, the fruit of tensions between the divergent interest groups

(shareholders, employees, government). The international dimension is an integral part of

this course as the Anglo-Saxon and continental accounting systems are systematically put

into perspective and discussed.

Course language : English

20

Course Content:

Semester 1

Chapter 1: Balance sheets as well as profit and loss accounts/ income statements in Anglo-

Saxon accounting (alpha case, beta case, smoc case)

Chapter 2: General Ledger and journal entry in Anglo-Saxon accounting (bell case)

Chapter 3: Balance sheets as well as profit and loss accounts in French accounting (valdor

cases, sava cases)

Chapter 4: Theories of accounting evaluation (new cases)

Last class: Case studies/synthesis and corrected annuals.

Semester 2

Chapter 5: The Buy-Sell-Payment cycle (case D),

Chapter 6: Tangible capital assets (cases 1 & 2),

In the context of their studies, students of the Global Bachelor will take a course in

specialised English, adapted to the current issues in contemporary society and

communication techniques.

CAMPUS LIFE

The University of Paris Dauphine is

unique in the richness and diversity of its

emblematic figures in the world of

Economics such as Joseph Stiglitz, Georges Ayittey, Daniel Cohen and Nassim Nicholas

Taleb thanks to its partnership with the BBC. For more information about these conferences,

CONSULT BBC PODCASTS : http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p01brr6f

Like on the Paris campus, a Dauphine Student Association will be created in London to

respond to students’ particular needs and expectation. This will be achieved through

numerous extracurricular activities promoting the spirit of the London student body. The

London Student Association will be put in contact will their fellow members in Paris in order

to create a synergy between the two campus.

- The mission of the Association will be to organise a series of annual conferences by uniting

renowned personalities around a current theme, and to do so using the template of the

Parisian Dauphine Discussion Debate.

- This former Parisian association has brought the following notable personalities to the

university: Anne Hidalgo, Nathalie Kosciusko-Morizet, Louis Gallois, Bruno le Roux, Jean-

François Copé, Frédéric Oudéa and Gérard Mestrallet.

In addition, a partnership with the Dauphine student newspaper La Plume has been created

for the 2014 London commencement.

La Plume: http://laplumedauphine.fr/

La Plume is the University of Paris Dauphine’s free student newspaper. This new medium of

expression within the university aims to encourage reflection and the sharing of information

between professors and students. The goal of La Plume is to represent the reality of the daily

lives of Dauphine students rather than to deliver current news and to do so through a lens of

its own. La Plume is modern, dynamic and reactive.

To accomplish this goal, a motivated team of students work to deliver amusing opinions and

analysis full of awareness, humour and fun. Their objective is to incite your participation

through direct interaction with the newspaper and to thereby discover new and untapped

talent.

What are the expectations of the members and contributors of the newspaper?

Every Dauphine student can become a contributor by writing timely articles for La Plume that

relate to one of the newspaper’s general topics: Dauphine News, Economic and Political

Analysis, Social Debate, International, Culture, Sports, Free Expression.

The articles accepted for publication will be featured on the La Plume website or in the

newspaper available at the university. It is also possible to become a member of the

newspaper. An interview regarding your motivation will be held with the main office in Paris

over Skype in October. On the basis of a 20€ registration fee, selected students undertake to

write a minimum of four English language articles within the year. A follow-up team is in

place to provide support between Paris and London.
